Singapore GE2020: ProgressSgParty raises concerns about submitting political broadcast scripts ahead of time
SINGAPORE - The Progress Singapore Party has expressed concerns over having to submit its scripts in advance for political broadcasts on national TV.
Besides the usual party political broadcasts for parties fielding at least six candidates, a new feature this general election is constituency-specific broadcasts, which will give candidates three minutes each to reach out to voters. Mr Chua told the media that PSP had concerns after being briefed about the procedure for the broadcasts by the Infocomm Media Development Authority on Friday.
But this time round, the speeches have to be submitted to the authorities ahead of time, and"potentially other people are also looking at whatever we submit", he said. Mr Lee said:"Well, the ruling party prides itself on the way that they select candidates. I don't know whether they knew or didn't know about some of these issues.
